Russian Propaganda Poster Weblog Project

This project about Russian propaganda will help you understand how totalitarian regimes use propaganda to convey political messages.
Step 1.
Go to the site Propaganda Posters
Step 2
Browse through the posters about Russia from the period 1917 until Satlin's death and read the captions.
Step 3
Choose any 6 posters that you particularly like and post these on your Modern World History weblog. (Do not forget to show the source.)
Write an introduction that explains what propaganda is and what you can learn by studying propaganda posters in history.
Write a paragraph about each poster. Suggestions:
What is the message of the poster?
What is it trying to get people to do or think?
How does it convey its message? (Hints: Use of color, layout, script etc.)
What is particularly effective about the poster?
Step 4
Coming to conclusions. Write a final paragraph about all of the posters you saw. What did they tell you about Russia, the Russian people and the use of propaganda.
